TEEING OFF: Jeff House tees off as Max Haley watches on at Forbes Golf Club recently.
The Saturday Men’s golf competition was the December Monthly Medal Stroke event, sponsored by Nutrien Ag Solutions, and also incorporated the ‘Medal Of Medallists’ for 2021.
Tony Cogswell (69 nett) won the ‘Medal of Medallists’ on count back from Peter Cowhan. Tony had one hiccup, but Peter’s putter misbehaved quite a bit when it mattered.
The A-Grade December medal was won by Phil Duke, also on count back from Kim Herbert when both finished on 67 nett. The B-Grade medal went to Bruce Chandler(68) from runner-up Tony Cogswell (69).
The best score of the day went to the C-Grade medal winner. Steve Grallelis (66 nett) was comfortably in front of Dave Bernardi (71) to earn the honours there.
The ball sweep went to 73 nett, on count back – check in the Pro Shop to see if you earned one. The NTP’s went to: 9th – Kim Herbert, 18th – John Betland. The 3rd Hole
Super Pin went to Todd Callaghan, smooth-ing a delicate shot to finish 1.7 metres from the pin.
There were no players in the Sunday Stableford Medley, with many people look-ing to family time away from the mozzies.
There will be much interest in the Ham Day comp tomorrow Saturday December 18. This will complete the serious stuff for the calendar year 2021. Stableford Med-ley’s are scheduled across the Christmas and New Year break with the January Monthly medal set for January 8, 2022.
Meanwhile the Sixes comp has kicked back in, with quite a few good scores recorded in the past week.
Head Pro Adam held a Mizuno Equipment Day last Tuesday and is scheduling some more equipment days in 2022. Speak to Adam if you are interested in trying anything specific.
